Cisco Awesomness

Ok, so the most useful thing I've learned in a long, long time is that Cisco's support aliases. No longer do I have to type sh ip int brief to see a list of ip interfaces. I just make an alias that allows the ipi command to do this.

Router(config)#alias exec ipi sh ip int brief

Router(config)#alias exec sr sh run
Router(config)#alias exec srb show run | begin


Apparently the Redback SE400s do as well!
